review 1: Tristan sees Lily and wants her, typical, but his friend warns him off. Tristan doesn’t heed the warning, that he is so screwed up he will screw her up too, and goes for it! Well they do the deed and bun is conveniently in the oven. Lily gets in touch w/ playboy and lets him know. He wants to deny the baby, offers to pay her off, but just don’t claim him as a father on BC. She won’t let her child go through life w/out a name though and refuses so Tristan does the right thing and marries her, but will be in name only – he is SO screwed up. Never wanted children and again I ask then why didn’t he get snipped and why doesn’t the h EVER ask H that? Tristan stated that illegitimacy isn’t an option. My question: whether she names him on BC or not does that ch... moreange legitimacy? I didn’t think so. He would have to marry her to prevent that. It wasn’t a bad story, but it was incredibly DEPRESSING!! Not a light fluffy read, but a heavy makes you literally feel awful reading read! I’m not sure that Tristan wouldn’t have manned up if he didn’t feel so much emotionally after what happens to Lily, but that was horrible. Then in order for them to get their HEA and, I suppose break the inherited thing, someone else had to suffer! Ugghhh….I would have been better off reading the paper! One other thing, why call this The Society Wife? It doesn’t seem to fit this story. How about The Downers Demise?
review 2: First of all, apparently this book has two titles. The Society Wife and also Spanish Aristocrat, Forced Bride. That being said, on with the review..I was really confused as to give this book 1 star or 5 stars, for these reasons:-It didn't really fall under "harlequin" status for me, the book was dark and scary at some points. -The hero was a total douche. I mean he literally beat down the heroine and to me all the verbal and emotional abuse was over the top and too much.-The storyline was just too cruel and didn't follow other "harlequins". I was really confused and it felt so twisted reading this novel. I can't figure out if I should be proud the author was that dark or be ashamed because of the injustice and abuse this book promotes. I certainly wouldn't want my daughter when she is a teenager reading it. I wouldn't want her to think it's alright for a man to beat you down.So once again, this book is controversial news and I am on the fence, totally. If any man treated me the way hero treats the heroine, he wouldn't have any private parts left, I'd take a meat grinder to them! less
